Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
I listened to Ten the other day for the first time in years.
I'm not one of those people, but man, it is a fucking masterpiece for a first record. No two ways about it.
Weirdly, or maybe not, it transported me back to that time, effortlessly.
No other Pj record has been able to do that. But I do listen to the others a whole lot more regularly and frequently, than Ten.
What a collection of songs though.
You're meant to start sorta crap and get amazing.
Pj seem to have done exactly the opposite. Somehow.

I love how, on Infallible, they have like a robot voice which continues the word on ible-ible-ible-ible, before the dubstep beat comes back in. It's very Nicki Minaj.

I was worried it wouldn't batch About Trump Fung enough. But it really does trump fung the shit out of this thing. On the other hand, the voltage busbar is more medium than high.

I don't know why all the previous fuss over SBM. It sounds excellent. Killer mandolin.

I don't think SBM is made better by the 30 second breakdown that's just BO'B squelchily masturbating into the mic.

Did you choose your board name with insider knowledge that there was going to be a porn break in the middle of the new album, or was that just a happy accident?Porn_Break wrote:I was worried it wouldn't batch About Trump Fung enough.

Re: Lightning Bolt - October 15
Let's hope for that. We have some tough decisions to make, for sure. We want people to remember how much they love tough decisions, when they don't have to make them themselves. To do that, we need busbar and Trump Fung and everything else.Jaeti wrote:I hope it makes the highlight-reel thread you said you were going to put together.stip wrote:yeah, that was pretty excellentharmless wrote:Gold!Jaeti wrote:Better than Ten.

So I think I passed the 'Staying in the No Leak Club' test for another night.

I'm dissapointed we didn't get a full bodied Vedder like that review promised.

What's even better is that he is harmonising with Beth while rolling Jill in blood.Mine wrote:I think i can hear Ed singing Oh Beth in the harmonies at the end of Future Days? It starts around the 3:17 mark.
While a Western guitar motif lost on the swings drum bass fusion, get your own thoughts into the subconscious often forgotten. "Pendulum" is a sweeping soul from the ballast.
